Transcendent produces high quality independent features and partners with The Panda Fund to release them theatrically. Our current projects are "Jubilee", written by Curt Hahn, and "Deadline", which was released in theaters nationwide in 2012. "No Regrets", Transcendent's first film, has been a worldwide success. Next, MGM acquired the worldwide rights to our co-production "Two Weeks". Drawing on the resources of parent company Film House, Tennessee's largest film production company, Transcendent produces the kind of inspiring, uplifting movies that speak to the viewer's heart. Transcendent both develops its own properties and partners with other producers by providing crew, equipment and facilities.

On October 6, 1871 ten young African-American students, all former slaves or children of slaves, set out from Nashville on a singing tour of the North to raise money to save their failing school, Fisk University. The matriarch of the singers was Ella Sheppard, a seventeen-year-old who was already a gifted singer and pianist and the group's accompanist. Ella was separated from her mother at age three when her father was able to buy her freedom. Now Ella's father is dead and, still dreaming of one day finding her mother, Ella and the other singers begin their improbable journey into glory as the original Fisk Jubilee Singers, the group that introduced the Negro Spirituals to the world. "Jubilee" is Ella's story.



Transcendent co-produced “Two Weeks” with L.A.-based writer-director Steve Stockman. It stars the remarkable Sally Field. She's the winner of two Academy Awards for Best Actress (for “Norma Rae” and “Places in the Heart”) and has created some of the screen's most memorable women in such classic movies as Steel Magnolias, Mrs. Doubtfire and Forrest Gump. “Two Weeks” marks her first appearance in an independent feature film. Co-starring with Field is Ben Chaplin (The Truth about Cats & Dogs), Tom Cavanagh (How to Eat Fried Worms), Julianne Nicholson (Kinsey), Glenn Howerton (E.R.) and Clea Duvall (The Grudge). The film, a bittersweet comedy, was shot entirely in Nashville. Worldwide rights were acquired by MGM which released the film theatrically and on DVD. "Two Weeks" had a pay cable window on Showtime and is now airing on Lifetime. “We loved helping Steve realize his vision for 'Two Weeks'”, said Transcendent founder and Film House CEO Curt Hahn . “Our goal is to grow the Nashville film industry, and bringing a star of Sally Field's caliber and a great project like 'Two Weeks' here from Los Angeles is a powerful way to do that.”
